Gen: services question

[Leonard Lawrence <bellvu15@USWEST.NET>]

In Nebraska we have ESUs--Educational Service Units.  In Iowa there are
AEAs--Area Education Agencies.  These are centrally located service
centers that provide a variety of services such as lending libraries,
testing, computer training and internet provider, cooperative orders,
and science materials to participating school districts.  Both states
are broken down into regions with each region providing services for
many school districts.  My question: Do other states have these and if
so what are they called?
